Pictures of Ausipicous Deities for Lunar New Year (新春福喜財神禡)





During Lunar New Year, folks will tend to buy some paper cuttings or paper dolls to hang or paste at one's home to increase the mood & joyous atmosphere.

In the Ancient Era, the Ancient Folks do that too, just that they paper dolls are different from what we have in the modern day.

Here are a few pictures of the Paper-Deities that the Ancient Folks will hang or paste during the New Year Period. Usually most of the Deities that are printed on the papers are Deity of Wealth, Deity of Fortune or Deity of Properity, etc.
